What did your wife buy you for Christmas?

I got this book!

 

PEACE.... I'm divorced too. But my mom got me a cookbook.

 

My dad got me a set of 32 bones-couple old Bonneville programs-hot rod mags from the 50's and a 34 head light signed Don Garlits Not to bad if you ask me

 

They got me Von Dutch's bus.

Just kidding, Tap and Die set, soooo damn useful.

 

x 2 !

 

In addition to my yearly fix of Levis, socks, and boxers, I got a framed portrait of Fred and Lamont, a Hamilton original and a copy of "The Car that Ate my Brain". Kudos to Hamilton and Evil for helping the Mrs out and expediting the shipping.

I also got a DART original from Dart and DaPhantom when I crashed their White Trash Christmas party Monday night.

 

A really bitchin painting of Marylin Monroe, James Dean, that old scene. VERY COOL!!

 

The always wonderful Mrs Jalopy ( of almost 22 years ) got me a: wheel bearing packer, Spark plug wire puller, new tire gauge, You might be a redneck calender, Jeff Foxworthy DVD, and we are planning a vacation starting at the HAMB drags and ending at Bonneville Slat flats ( yes I know there will be no racing then ) and then the long drive back to Minnesota.

 

really boring stuff some of which I really needed. Highlight was a new wallet to replace the worn out one that has been through the washer at least twice.

But!!! my son got me a cool RC chopped candy apple read chopped Merc complete with wide whites and sombreos. I need to hit Costco for a batch of AA batteries for the controler though.

 

Cordless drill and a GPS

 

Oh! I got to ask for this one next Christmas. Hey Valentines Day is soon!

 

My wife gave me a gift certificate from Summit along with one of their T-Shirts, and since I am into Matchbox and Hot Wheels she got me an old Matchbox Boat with Trailor.
